Mababa range niyan. 25-250 inch-lb so divide mo by 12 = 2-20 foot lb. Hanggang spark plug lang kaya niya.

Eto kunin mo ... http://www.tooltopia.com/gearwrench-85054.aspx

Gearwrench sockets maganda na mura pa. However if you plan to use impact tools you can prefer to get impact sockets first rather than chrome so you can use it on both ratchets and impact wrenches.

Get a kit ... sockets + ratchet unless you brought your ratchet with you.

Most probably you will need both SAE and Metric.

Search Amazon for Gearwrench bargains. Remember you can start either with 3/8" drive or 1/2" drive set.

If you prefer impact sockets then Grey Pneumatic or Sunex are very good bang for the buck.

Sample lang yan ... Amazon is a good source . Just check for bargains.

Re: Automotive Tools

the 1/2 dr metric deep impact socket $89, buy 1 set and get 1 set...raincheck pa yung isang free na set - english 1/2 dr deep impact socket kaya wala pa sa picture 😀

made in USA pa din naman hehe

Re: Automotive Tools

Good kits Oz.

The sockets are most probably made by SK. Top end US Manufacturer.

Re: Automotive Tools

@jay,
isinoli ko ung Digitork, nag email ako sa Sears na sabi ko walang calibration date or card yung item nila, sabi sa akin ay dalhin ko daw sa store branch na pinagbilhan ko at sila ang magpapadala sa Calibration Lab ng Sears. pagpunta ko sa Sears, sinabi ko yun, tapos sabi ng staff nila e hindi nila ginagawa sa store nila, walang esep esep, ISINOLI ko hehe

nag email ulit ako at sinabi ko na ang nangyari at di ako satisfied sa management style nila, kasi hindi informed lahat ng branch sa mga ganung transaction etc etc hehe

eto ngayon, nag lay low sa pagbili ng torque wrench hehe

baka precision instrument as per your advise - may kasamang calibration card yun di ba sabi mo?
how about kaya yung gearwrench?

salamas

Happy New Tool Year!!! 😀
